Transruinaulta 42 km
The Transruinaulta Trailmarathon is a single-stage mountain marathon covering 42.2 km and about 1800 m of ascent. The route runs from Ilanz to Thusis and follows singletrail sections along the young Vorderrhein before entering the Rheinschlucht. After roughly 11 km runners climb toward Versam, pass through the Versamertobel and Scardanal, and continue to Rhäzüns. The course then turns toward the Heinzenberg and follows the Hinterrhein up to the area of Präz. From the high point the trail descends along singletracks on the Heinzenberg with some short climbs before the finish in Thusis.
The race is organised with partial autonomy; athletes must be able to manage between aid and control stations for food, equipment, navigation and safety. Recommended minimum equipment includes a mobile phone with emergency number, survival blanket and personal drinking cup. Additional kit is suggested depending on weather.
Time limits apply at intermediate controls and finish. The entry fee for the marathon is CHF 95 and includes a finisher prize, clothes transfer from start to finish, on-course feeding as listed in the event plan, and chip timing with official ranking.
